Frittata is the Italian word for omelets. Frittatas are prepared differently than omelet’s, usually started on the stovetop and finished under the broiler. The result is an egg dish that is firm, and nicely brown on the top and edges. Frittatas require an ovenproof skillet for preparation, but no other special equipment. These are great dishes to highlight fresh, seasonal ingredients or a perfect way to utilize leftovers. Also another way to use some of our farm fresh – free range eggs.

Frittatas are perfect for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. Once cooked, they can be served hot, or cooled and served at room temperature. This flat omelets style dish will serve 4 to 6 people easily, often many more, as a frittata can have a dozen eggs or more in the dish along with fillers such as cheese, meat, and vegetables. Fast and easy to whip up at a moment’s notice, frittatas can satisfy any appetite and are perfect for any occasion.
